Find the sum of the infinite geometric sequence:
8, 4, 2, 1, .......​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Therefore the sum if the series is 15.98!

The common ratio is 1/2 or 0.5 . If you multiply the current term by the the common ratio the the output will be the next term.

8⋅1/2=4

4⋅1/2=2

2⋅1/2=1 etc ...

because the absolute value of r is less than 1 we can use the following formula.

a/1−r where a is the first term and r is the common ratio

In our problem

a=8 and r=0.5

Substitute

8/1−0.5=8/0.5=16

The sum of this infinite geometric series is 16.

Also, another formula you can use that is guaranteed to work every time, no matter what, is:

Sn=a(r^n−1/r−1)

All the variables work the same way as above, and "n" is the number of terms in the series. So, say you wanted to find the sum of the first 10 terms and were to substitute everything in:

S10=8(0.5^10−1/0.5−1)

S10=15.984375

Therefore the sum if the series is 15.98!

the diagram shows the distance between city P and city S and city T. which measurement is closest to x, than the distance between city P and city T in miles?​

Answers

Answer:

1352 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

since city t, s, and P make a right angle we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse (distance from t to p) 1180 squared=1,392,400 and 660 squared =435,600 so now we add them together and take its square root which is 1352.0

Kate writes an algebraic expression using each of the variables x and y only once. they first expression she writes uses x and y as factors. Than she writes another expression that uses x and y as terms. if x and y are both negative integers, write a comparison between the two expressions

Choice A: More information is needed.
Choice B: Using x and y factor results in an expression of greater value than using x and y as terms.
Choice C: None of the other answers are correct.
Choice D: The two expressions are of equal value.

Answers

Answer:

B: Using x and y factor results in an expression of greater value than using x and y as terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

For her first expression, x and y are factors;

xy

For her second expression, x and y are written as terms;

x + y

For x and y are both negative integers, then;

-x * -y = xy  ............... 1

-x + (-y) = - x - y

            = - (x + y)  .............. 2

Therefore, the value of x and y factors is greater than that when x and y are as terms. Thus the correct option is B.

Answer:

x = - 3.75

y = 28.75

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \begin{cases} x + y = 25\\\\ 5x + y = 10 \end{cases} [/tex]

Since, x + y = 25

Therefore, y = 25 - x..... (1)

5x + y = 10......(2)

Plug y = 25 - x in equation (2), we find:

5x + 25 - x = 10

5x - x = 10 - 25

4x = - 15

x = - 15/4

x = - 3.75

Plug x = - 3.75 in equation (1), we find:

y = 25 - (- 3.75)

y = 25 + 3.75

y = 28.75

(x, y) = (-3.75, 28.75)

What is a right-angle triangle?

It is a type of triangle in which one angle is 90 degrees and it follows the Pythagoras theorem and we can use the trigonometry function.

The length of a guy's wire supporting a cell tower is 120 meters.

The guy wire is anchored to the ground at a distance of 80 meters from the base of the tower.

We know that the Pythagoras theorem.

[tex]\rm H^2 = P^2 + B^2[/tex]

We have

H = 120 m

B = 80 m

Then by the Pythagoras theorem, we have

[tex]\rm P = \sqrt{H^2 - B^2}\\\\P = \sqrt{120^2 - 80^2}\\\\P = \sqrt{14400 - 6400}\\\\P = \sqrt{8000} = 89.44[/tex]

Thus, the height of the tower is 89.44 m.

Answers

Answer:

a) 40 inches

b) No it will not fit inside

Step-by-step explanation:

Angharad is buying a new 50-inch screen TV (remember that TV screens are measured along the diagonal )

a) If it is 30 inches tall, how wide is the screen ?

Diagonal ² = Width² + Height²

Diagonal = 50 inches

Height = 30 inches

50² = Width² + 30²

Width² = 50² - 30²

Width = √50² - 30²

Width = √(1600)

Width = 40 inches

b) Her TV cabinet is 30 inches wide .will the TV fit inside it ?

No it will not fit inside

This is because, the width of the TV is the above calculation is 40 inches. This is wider than the width of the TV cabinet, hence, it won't fit inside
